My votes don't get counted, anyway (Score:2)
I want to vote "other" for every race, but in my state there's no way to do that. So I intend to do it by voting for myself as a writein in every race. However, I went to vote early last time, and the computers they used didn't allow for writein. This time, I'll have to vote on the real day.
And even if I do get to make my vote, they will ignore it.
My goal is to get everyone to vote like this. I want noone to win, and noone in office.

My goal is to get everyone to learn how to spell "no one" correctly. Somehow I think neither of us will see our goals achieved in our lifetimes... :(

I thought you'd caught me on a gross misunderstanding of the English language, for a minute. But noone is, in fact, a word [reference.com]. Unless this is yet another one of those British/American English things. Where your browser stores biscuits instead of cookies, or whatever. :P
I'm one of those people who goes nuts when I see "alot," so I can understand why you'd want this corrected, if it were wrong, but it's not.

On the other hand, this page [wsu.edu], which I have always taken as an authority, disagrees with me. :(

Actually, that dictionary page rather deceptively redirects me to "no one" instead of telling me that "noone" does not exist.
I concede. Thank you for correcting me.

Bookmark the DICT [dict.org] meta dictionary instead, which gives the correct answer [dict.org].
